Corephallism/Gnaw Their Tongues – Split 10″EP
Lascivious Aesthetics
This is easily one of my favorite releases of 2012 and it’s great to know that before the halfway point. Two underrated acts team up for this obsessive industrial slab of vinyl to form a formidable sonic force. Their respective styles differing so much yet at the same time complimenting each other gracefully. Right off the bat I noticed the absolutely gorgeous artwork with sparse yet well placed text which helps make this release an instant classic.
Corephallism is up first with two tracks of …

Hive Mind (Los Angeles, CA)
Hive Mind – Return to Steam
Hive Mind is a brutal patch of analog smog birthed in the bleak landscape of Detroit, Michigan and currently casting shadows in Los Angeles, California. A constantly throbbing, full frequency signal transmitter which is only limited by the physical restraints of time and the artificial constructs of society, Hive Mind has both blessed and cursed us with dozens of musical communications in almost every imaginable format.
Pushing the limits of analog media and revealing the coldness inherent in the …

Sky Burial – Dream Decimator C60
Cathartic Process
Clocking in at 60 minutes Dream Decimator is an epic work with minimal packaging – a very deceiving release indeed. This is perhaps my favorite Sky Burial material to date with very detailed ambient/industrial sound collage and drone. This is where the elements that Page has been working with for years have finally come together perfectly.
I can only guess that this tape consists of one long track because there is no tracklisting mentioned in the insert. One thing that really catches my attention here …

GRKZGL (Montreal, Canada)
GRKZGL – Ainsi tout fout-il le camp
Hailing from Montreal, GRKZGL (also known by some as Alexandre Scarfone) has been genre-dodging since 2003, progressing from his digital gurgles and cosmic drones to his current excursions in noise. He also plays alongside sax player Cabral Jacobs and drummer John Brennan in the trio Chansons d’amour (and with Brennan as Totems), with Martin Sasseville (Wapstan) in the tape warble-based Incapables and in a duo with synth wizard Emilie Mouchous as Gmackrrkzgl.
